Who We Are
Burlington Animal Shelter is operated by the City of Burlington. We have been providing Animal Control Services to the community of Burlington since 1968. Our services include adoptions, sheltering of lost and stray pets, animal control, and by-law enforcement. Our vision is to maintain an Animal Control orgainization that is committed to exellence in service, and the welfare of all animals.
Adopting a friend
Burlington Animal Shelter is responsible for sheltering and caring for all lost and stray pets within the City of Burlington. Provincial statute mandates that we hold stray pets for a 72 hour redemption period (excluding holidays) prior to placing any pet up for adoption to a new home. If not claimed by an owner, the Burlington Animal Shelter becomes the legal guardian of these pets. This is our opportunity to place these pets into new and more caring homes. As an added bonus to our potiential adopters, our animals are given age appropriate vaccinations, a free physical examination (with a Burlington Veterinarian), a microchip for permanent identification and 6 weeks of pet insurance coverage. During the adoption process, we encourage prospective adopters to spend time getting to know the pets so that they can make an educated choice for their new companion. Our staff will spend time answering questions and will explain the responsibilities of owning and caring for a new pet.
We have a variety of animals in the shelter that are awaiting adoption into loving new homes.
Come Visit Us!
The Burlington Animal Shelter can fulfill your adoption needs. Come to our facility at 2424 Industrial Street to view animals available for adoption. We're open Monday to Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. and Saturdays and Sundays from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
You can also visit SuperPet. Every other month we display our cats and kittens at the SuperPet store located at 1059 Plains Road East in Burlington. All of the kittens and cats you see there are ready for adoption. If you see an animal you like please visit the shelter to complete the adoption forms and pick up your new family member.
Adoption fees are as follows:
Cats $80
Dogs $120
The adoption fee includes age appropriate vaccinations, first veterinary examination (with a Burlington Veterinarian), microchip for identification, and 6 weeks of Pet Insurance. If not spayed or neutered at the time of adoption, spaying or neutering must be done at the new adopters expense as signed for in our adoption agreement.
